Project Description

Organic Services

Organic farming relies on the principle of managing naturally occurring biological cycles to provide soil fertility and control weeds, pests and diseases instead of using agrochemicals.

Managing an organic farm requires a holistic whole farm approach that encourages all the complex relationships between soils, micro-organisms, plants and animals to work together effectively alongside a stress free farmer to achieve a productive and sustainable farming system.

We work very closely with both the Soil Association and Organic Farmers and Growers to engage farmers with organic farming principles, EU regulation and the organic certification process required to farm organically and sell organically certified farm produce.

This advice is delivered through a one to one farm review with an easy to use follow up report and set of recommendations which highlights areas for improvement for your organic farm business. We have listed just some of our organic services below, but please call, or email: advice@abacusagri.com to discuss your own specific requirements.

Abacus offers professional advice to organic farmers, government agencies, and public, private sectors companies on a wide range of organic farming systems.

Our team consultants provide technical expertise across a broad range of organic farming systems, managing projects on livestock, arable and vegetable farms across the country.

Abacus advisers work directly on farm and with corporate clients delivering management advice from field to fork, across the entire supply chain.
